So I kinda lost my way a little and ended up having a little break from my Slimming World journey...I'm not bothered by this, it just means it will take me slightly longer to reach my target than I first thought.
I have been doing Slimming World on and off probably for the last 10 years *wow 10 years...that's crazy...If I'd got to target the first time I wouldn't have to be messing around now* When I joined last time I promised myself it would be the LAST time...I stuck to plan for over a year but I just got to the point that I wasn't enjoying my food, or going to group, in fact I wasn't enjoying anything!!!
I've had a break since April and I've re-joined and I'm back at group...! Everyone at group made me feel so welcome, I've been to many groups in the past and never felt as welcome as I did today.
I've returned home with a new book, magazine and some focus...my Tesco online order is complete and once delivered there'll be no stopping me.
I've still got my braces on and there's still no sign of having any jaw surgery...although I wish they'd hurry up as to be honest it's getting on my nerves.
Since my last post in February...I have moved house <3 and now live where my grandparents used to live...<3 <3 <3 I'm almost all settled in...still a few bits to get but I'll get there in the end!
I've also been teaching myself to crochet, I'm becoming a dab hand at a granny square blanket...just a shame I can't make anything else *haha*
Here's to more blogging, learning a new crochet pattern & of course losing those extra lb.'s.

On It...
I’ve been back on the Slimming World wagon for 5 days now, and I’m really feeling focussed.
I haven’t been to weigh in since early December and believe me when I got on my scales on Saturday I knew it! I had gained at least 7lb which in 3 weeks isn’t too bad especially as it contains Christmas & New Year.
After my sneaky weigh in I was adamant I was getting straight back on plan and get back on the weight loss wagon.
I had a sneaky weigh in this morning and I’m back to the weight I was at my last weigh in…hopefully by the time Wednesday comes and I make it to weigh in I will back to at least 3.5stone loss if not a little more…ready to go full speed ahead to the 4stone.
January...
January 2014 is here, I can’t say I’m disappointed to see the back of 2013…it wasn’t the best year for me, my family & friends…but we all got through it with the help of one another.
2013 saw…one of my best friends lose her Mum, and me lose my wonderful Nan!
2013 wasn’t all bad though…I’ve got some amazing memories from times spent with my fabulous friends…such as…
January’s trip to London…with Leanne & Becca
Nicola’s 30th Birthday celebrations in May
In June I went on Holiday to Puerto Rico with my fellow MancBird June
June also saw a weekend away in Newcastle for Nicola’s Hen Party
August was the Wedding of the Year…between Nicola & Trigger
2 Dublin visits close together…1x for Shane Filan’s album launch party & the 2nd for the Childline Concert…!
I’ve even managed to lose 3.5 stone on Slimming World…there’s still plenty more weight to go and although I know I could’ve lost more I’m happy with this as I still need to live my life and have fun!
I’ve had my braces on my teeth since April and it’s all going well…however I can’t wait until all my treatment is done! I wish they could just hurry up and do the surgery without all this messing about…but still needs must.
I’ve learned a lot about people in 2013…people that I thought were my friends…but really they just don’t give a shit…well in 2014…I’m not going to! I know who is important to me and I know who appreciates me for me and it’s with them that my loyalties will lie.
I realised with a tremendous thud that I had feelings for someone I work with after I saw him kissing someone else!!! The worst part of all of this is…he likes me and he knows I like him…but he is seeing someone else…he can’t understand why I would like him…! Why is nothing in this life easy??
What is 2014 going to bring?? Well lets see…
It’s going to see me losing more weight…I’m hoping to get my 4stone award by the end of January and maybe even my 5 stone award by my birthday in March.
I’m going to have my surgery on my teeth at some point…eeeeek!
One of my best friends and fellow MancBirdz is going to have a baby in April <3
Charlotte has got a Hen Night to host before her Wedding early next year!
Hopefully I’ll squeeze a holiday in somewhere for a week in the sun.
I’m going to learn how to Crochet…I’ve wanted to learn for ages…but never done it…so I’ve just ordered a book and some hooks ready!
I will sort myself out one day…maybe 2014 is the year for me to do this!
